BACKGROUND

Semiconductor devices are becoming steadily smaller while having more functionality and greater amounts of integrated circuitry. To accommodate the miniaturized scale of the semiconductor device, integrated circuits have emerged as an effective alternative to further reduce the physical size of a semiconductor device. A wafer-level packaging (WLP) process is widely used due to its low cost and relatively simple manufacturing operations.

Various technologies and applications have been developed for the wafer-level packaging, involving greater numbers of different components with different materials. For example, millimeter (mm)-wave antennas with RF integrated circuits (ICs) are used in high-frequency applications.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The following disclosure provides many different embodiments, or examples, for implementing different features of the provided subject matter. Specific examples of elements and arrangements are described below to simplify the present disclosure. These are, of course, merely examples and are not intended to be limiting. For example, the formation of a first feature over or on a second feature in the description that follows may include embodiments in which the first and second features are formed in direct contact, and may also include embodiments in which additional features may be formed between the first and second features, such that the first and second features may not be in direct contact. In addition, the present disclosure may repeat reference numerals and/or letters in the various examples. This repetition is for the purpose of simplicity and clarity and does not in itself dictate a relationship between the various embodiments and/or configurations discussed.

Further, spatially relative terms, such as “beneath,” “below,” “lower,” “above,” “over,” “upper,” “on” and the like, may be used herein for ease of description to describe one element or feature's relationship to another element(s) or feature(s) as illustrated in the figures. The spatially relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations of the device in use or operation in addition to the orientation depicted in the figures. The apparatus may be otherwise oriented (rotated 90 degrees or at other orientations) and the spatially relative descriptors used herein may likewise be interpreted accordingly.

As used herein, although the terms such as “first,” “second” and “third” describe various elements, components, regions, layers and/or sections, these elements, components, regions, layers and/or sections should not be limited by these terms. These terms may be only used to distinguish one element, component, region, layer or section from another. The terms such as “first,” “second” and “third” when used herein do not imply a sequence or order unless clearly indicated by the context.

Notwithstanding that the numerical ranges and parameters setting forth the broad scope of the disclosure are approximations, the numerical values set forth in the specific examples are reported as precisely as possible. Any numerical value, however, inherently contains certain errors necessarily resulting from the standard deviation found in the respective testing measurements. Also, as used herein, the terms “substantially,” “approximately” and “about” generally mean within a value or range that can be contemplated by people having ordinary skill in the art. Alternatively, the terms “substantially,” “approximately” and “about” mean within an acceptable standard error of the mean when considered by one of ordinary skill in the art. People having ordinary skill in the art can understand that the acceptable standard error may vary according to different technologies. Other than in the operating/working examples, or unless otherwise expressly specified, all of the numerical ranges, amounts, values and percentages such as those for quantities of materials, durations of times, temperatures, operating conditions, ratios of amounts, and the likes thereof disclosed herein should be understood as modified in all instances by the terms “substantially,” “approximately” or “about.” Accordingly, unless indicated to the contrary, the numerical parameters set forth in the present disclosure and attached claims are approximations that can vary as desired. At the very least, each numerical parameter should at least be construed in light of the number of reported significant digits and by applying ordinary rounding techniques. Ranges can be expressed herein as from one endpoint to another endpoint or between two endpoints. All ranges disclosed herein are inclusive of the endpoints, unless specified otherwise.

Other features and processes may also be included. For example, testing structures may be included to aid in the verification testing of the 3D packaging or 3DIC devices. The testing structures may include, for example, test pads formed in a redistribution layer or on a substrate that allows the testing of the 3D packaging or 3DIC, the use of probes and/or probe cards, and the like. The verification testing may be performed on intermediate structures as well as the final structure. Additionally, the structures and methods disclosed herein may be used in conjunction with testing methodologies that incorporate intermediate verification of known good dies to increase the yield and decrease costs.

In the present disclosure, semiconductor structures and methods of manufacturing the same are provided. In particular, a semiconductor structure with one or more antenna structures is described below. In addition, methods of forming the semiconductor structure including one or more antenna structures are also provided below. Other features and processes may also be included. The semiconductor structure includes a dielectric member configured to resonate with the antenna structure. The dielectric member provided according to some embodiments of the present disclosure may improve the reflection coefficient of the antenna structure in the semiconductor structure, especially in high-frequency applications that employ antenna efficiency at frequencies of 5.8 GHz and higher. The dielectric member also helps reduce the undesirable coupling of the antenna structure to nearby circuits, and prevent unwanted noise from the circuits from reaching the antenna structure. Further, a resonant frequency of the antenna structure can be tuned as desired by adjusting a size of the dielectric member or a material used to form the dielectric member.

In some embodiments, the antenna structure 144 covers the dielectric member 134 in a top view. In some embodiments, a width W₁₃₄ of the dielectric member 134 is substantially less than or equal to a width of the antenna structure 144.

In some embodiments, a surface area of the dielectric member 134 is substantially less than or equal to a surface area of the antenna structure 144. In some embodiments, when the difference between the dielectric constants k of the dielectric member 134 and the antenna structure 144 is greater, the difference between the surface areas of dielectric member 134 and the antenna structure 144 is also greater. In some embodiments, as the dielectric constant k of the dielectric member 134 increases, the surface area of the dielectric member 134 decreases. In some embodiments, the first conductive vias 131 disposed along the periphery of the dielectric member 134 and the antenna structure 144 overlap each other in a top view as in FIGS. 5 to 7 .

In some embodiments, the method 200 is configured to form the semiconductor structure 100 as in FIGS. 1 and 2 . Referring to FIG. 9 , a supporting substrate 113 having an adhesive layer 114 disposed thereon is provided. In some embodiments, the adhesive layer 114 is formed on a top surface of the supporting substrate 113. In some embodiments, the supporting substrate 113 is a glass substrate and the adhesive layer 114 is a light-to-heat conversion (LTHC) release layer applied on the supporting substrate 113. However, the disclosure is not limited thereto. In some alternative embodiments, other suitable materials are adapted for the supporting substrate 113 and the adhesive layer 114.

As in FIG. 10 , a first dielectric layer 112 is formed on the adhesive layer 114. In some embodiments, the first dielectric layer 112 is formed by suitable fabrication techniques such as spin coating, chemical vapor deposition (CVD), plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD), or the like. In some embodiments, the first dielectric layer 112 is a single layer or multiple layers stacked over each other. In some embodiments, the first dielectric layer 112 includes polymeric material. In some embodiments, the polymeric material includes low-temperature polyimide (LTPI), epoxy resin, acrylic resin, phenol resin, benzocyclobutene (BCB), polybenzooxazole (PBO), or any other suitable polymer-based dielectric material. In some embodiments, the polymeric material is dissolved in a solvent to enhance the coating fluidity. In some embodiments, after the polymeric material is uniformly coated on the adhesive layer 114, a curing process is performed to evaporate the solvent. For example, in some embodiments, the first dielectric layer 112 is cured through a soft-baking process.

As in FIG. 11 , a plurality of first conductive patterns 111 are formed on the first dielectric layer 112. The first conductive patterns 111 is formed by, for example, electroplating, deposition, and/or photolithography and etching. In some embodiments, the first conductive patterns 111 are formed by the following process. First, a seed layer (not shown) is blanketly formed over the first dielectric layer 112. In some embodiments, the seed layer includes a titanium/copper composite layer and is formed by a sputtering process. Next, a first mask pattern (not shown) having openings is formed on the seed layer. The openings of the first mask pattern expose the intended locations for the subsequently-formed first conductive patterns 111. Next, a plating process is performed to form a conductive material layer on portions of the seed layer exposed by the openings of the first mask pattern. In some embodiments, the conductive material layer includes aluminum, titanium, copper, nickel, tungsten, and/or alloys thereof. The first mask pattern and the seed layer are then removed by a stripping process and/or an etching process. The remaining seed layer and the remaining conductive material layer then constitute the first conductive patterns 111. In some embodiments, the first conductive pattern 111 is formed to have a height H₁₁₁ between about 1 μm and about 40 μm. As a height H₁₁₁ of the first conductive pattern 111 increases, the cost is too high in some embodiments. As a height Hill of the first conductive pattern 111 decreases, then the resistance of the first conductive pattern 111 is too high in some embodiments.

Referring to FIG. 12 , a first patterned photoresist 302 is applied over the first conductive patterns 111 and the exposed portions of the first dielectric layer 112. In some embodiments, the first patterned photoresist 302 includes first recesses 303. The first recesses 303 expose some portions of the first conductive patterns 111. In some embodiments, the first patterned photoresist 302 is formed to have a height H₃₀₂ between about 100 μm and about 500 μm. As a height H₃₀₂ of the first patterned photoresist 302 increases, the cost of the first patterned photoresist 302 is too high in some embodiments. As a height H₃₀₂ of the first patterned photoresist 302 decreases, the process parameters of the current manufacturing process are not applicable in some embodiments. In some embodiments, the first and second conductive vias 131, 132 are formed within the first recesses 303. In some embodiments, the first recess 303 has a depth of about 50 μm to about 500 μm. A depth of the first recess 303 varies with the height H₃₀₂ of the first patterned photoresist 302 in some embodiments. As a depth of the first recess 303 increases, the cost of the first patterned photoresist 302 is too high in some embodiments. As a depth of the first recess 303 decreases, the process parameters of the current manufacturing process are not applicable in some embodiments. In some embodiments, the depth of the first recess 303 is from about 120 μm to about 250 μm. In some embodiments, the depth of the first recess 303 is 180 μm. The depth of the first recess 303 is determined based on the thickness of the first patterned photoresist 302.

In some embodiments, a seed layer (not shown) having a thickness between 1000 and 5000 Angstroms (Å) is formed on the structure of FIG. 12 in preparation for electroplating deposition of the first and second conductive vias 131, 132. As a thickness of the seed layer increases, the cost of the seed layer is too high in some embodiments. As a thickness of the seed layer decreases, the process parameters of the current manufacturing process are not applicable in some embodiments. In some embodiments, the seed layer covers the surfaces of the first patterned photoresist 302 and the exposed portion of the first redistribution structure 110, such as the first conductive pattern 111 at the bottom of the first recesses 303.

Referring to FIG. 13 , in some embodiments, a conductive material 138 is deposited into the first recesses 303 by a plating process. The first recesses 303 are filled with conductive material 138 in order to form the first and second conductive vias 131, 132. In some embodiments, the plating process includes, for example, electroplating, electroless plating, immersion plating, or the like. However, the disclosure is not limited thereto. In some embodiments, the conductive material 138 includes, for example, copper, copper alloys, or the like. In some embodiments, the first and second conductive vias 131, 132 are formed by filling the first recesses 303 in the first photoresist 301 with conductive material 138 by plating, which is electroplating or electro-less plating, on the seed layer.

Next, referring to FIG. 14 , in some embodiments, an excess portion of the conductive material 138 is removed by a grinding process to expose the top surface of the first patterned photoresist 302. The grinding process includes, for example, a mechanical grinding process, a chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process, or the like. However, the disclosure is not limited thereto. In some alternative embodiments, the grinding process is omitted in some embodiments.

In some embodiments, as in FIG. 15 , the first patterned photoresist 302 is removed and the first and second conductive vias 131, 132 are thus formed. In some embodiments, the first patterned photoresist 302 is removed through a stripping process, an etching process, and/or a cleaning process. For example, the first patterned photoresist 302 is removed by applying chemicals such as dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), water (H₂O), and tetramethyl ammonium hydroxide (TMAH). In some embodiments, upon removal of the first patterned photoresist 302, a portion of the seed layer (not shown) is exposed from the first and second conductive vias 131, 132. Subsequently, the exposed portion of the seed layer is removed through an etching process. In some embodiments, the etching process includes an anisotropic etching process such as a dry etch or an isotropic etching process such as a wet etch. In some embodiments, an etchant for the wet etch includes a combination of hydrogen fluoride (HF), copper (Cu), and ammonia (NH₃), a combination of HF and TMAH, or the like. In some embodiments, the conductive material and the remaining seed layer are collectively referred to as the first and second conductive vias 131, 132.

In some embodiments, as in FIG. 16 , the die 120 is disposed on the first dielectric layer 112. In some embodiments, the die 120 is attached to the first dielectric layer 112 by a pick-and-place method. For example, the die 120 is attached to a blank wafer (not shown). The blank wafer is then flipped over to attach the die 120 to the first dielectric layer 112. The blank wafer is then detached from the die 120, for instance, by mechanical peeling. An annealing is optionally performed after placing the die 120 on the first dielectric layer 112. In some embodiments, the die 120 can be adhered to the first dielectric layer 112 using an adhesive layer 121. The die 120 may include a semiconductor substrate 122 in contact with the adhesive layer 121. In some embodiments, the conductive pillars 124 of the die 120 are formed as a portion of the front surface 120 b of the die 120. A die dielectric layer 125 is formed at the front surface 120 b of the die 120 and fills the spaces between the conductive pillars 124, with the conductive pillars 124 having at least their lower portions in the die dielectric layer 125.

In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 17 , a molding material 139 is applied over the die 120 and the first and second conductive vias 131, 132, and is then cured. The molding material 139 surrounds or encapsulates the die 120 and the first and second conductive vias 131, 132, and the molding material 139 is in contact with any exposed portions of the first dielectric layer 112 and the first conductive pattern 111, in some embodiments. In some embodiments, the molding material 139 includes a molding compound, which is liquid epoxy, such as liquid epoxy containing fine granular silica, liquid glass (SiO2) (spin-on glass) or ceramics. Molding compounds such as the liquid epoxy are applicable as a coating, and then cured and hardened at low temperature (about 180° C.). In some embodiments, the top surface of the molding material 139 is higher than the top surface 310B of the die 120 and the top ends of the first and second conductive vias 131, 132.

In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 18 , the molding material 139 is ground until the top surface 310B of the die 120 and top surfaces 131 t, 132 t of the first and second conductive vias 131, 132 are exposed. In some embodiments, the molding material 139 is ground by a mechanical grinding process and/or a CMP process. In some embodiments, the grinding causes the top ends of the conductive pillars 124 and the first and second conductive vias 131, 132 to be substantially level (coplanar). In some embodiments, the grinding step leaves behind some metal residue, such as metal particles, on the top surface of the molding material 139. Accordingly, in some embodiments, after the grinding step, a cleaning is performed, for example, through a wet etching, to remove the metal residue.

After the molding material 139 is ground, a molding 130 having a bottom surface 130 b and a top surface 130 t opposite to the bottom surface 130 b is formed. In some embodiments, the molding 130 is disposed over the first redistribution structure 110 to at least laterally encapsulate the die 120. The one or more first and second conductive vias 131, 132 are disposed within the molding 130 and extend from the first conductive patterns 111 toward the top surface 130 t of the molding 130.

In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 19 , a second patterned photoresist 304 is applied over the molding 130 and the first and second conductive vias 131, 132. A portion of the molding 130 disposed in the opening is removed to form a second recess 306. In some embodiments, the molding 130 may be removed through a wet etching process. In some embodiments, the second recess 306 is formed between first conductive vias 131 and exposes some portions of the first conductive patterns 111. The first conductive vias 131 and their associated first conductive patterns 111 define the periphery of the second recess 306.

In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 20 , the second patterned photoresist 304 is removed through a stripping process, an etching process, and/or a cleaning process. In some embodiments, the removal of the second patterned photoresist 304 is similar to the removal of the first patterned photoresist 304, so repeated descriptions thereof are omitted herein.

In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 21 , a dielectric paste 307 is deposited into the second recess 306 and applied over the die 120, the molding 130, and the first and second conductive vias 131, 132. In some embodiments, the dielectric paste 307 has a dielectric constant k substantially greater than the dielectric constant k of the molding 130. In some embodiments, the dielectric paste 307 may be in contact with the first conductive pattern 301. In some embodiments, the dielectric paste 307 includes SiO₂, SiN_(x), SiO_(x)N_(y), ZrO₂, Al₂O₃, HfO_(x), HfSiO_(x), ZrTiO_(x), TiO₂, TaO_(x), SrTiO₃, BaTiO₃, BaSrTiO₃, PbZrTiO₃, a high-k polymer, or a combination thereof. In some embodiments, the high-k polymer is PBO, PI, or the combination thereof. In some embodiments, the dielectric paste 307 is in liquid phase at room temperature. In some embodiments, the dielectric paste 307 is a slurry paste. In some embodiments, the dielectric paste 307 includes a solvent to enhance the coating fluidity. In some embodiments, a dielectric material having a dielectric constant k substantially greater than the dielectric constant k of the molding 130 is deposited to fill the second recess 306 and dispose over the molding 130 and the first and second conductive vias 131, 132.

In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 22 , a portion of the dielectric paste 307 is removed until a front surface 120 b of the die 120 and top surfaces 131 t, 132 t of the first and second conductive vias 131, 132 are exposed. In some embodiments, the portion of the dielectric paste 307 is removed by a scraper. In some embodiments, the removal causes the top surface of the dielectric paste 307, the die 120, and the first and second conductive vias 131, 132 to be substantially level (coplanar) along the top surface 130 t. In some embodiments, after the portion of the dielectric paste 307 is removed, a curing process or hardening process is performed to evaporate the solvent. For example, in some embodiments, the dielectric paste 307 is cured by a soft-baking process, and the temperature of curing the dielectric paste 307 is less than 250° C. In some embodiments, the temperature of the curing is less than 210° C. and more preferably less than 180° C.

After the dielectric paste 307 disposed in the second recess 306 is cured, a dielectric member 134 is formed and disposed on the first redistribution structure 110 and disposed between the first conductive vias 131 and the molding 130. In some embodiments, the dielectric member 134 extends from the first conductive patterns 111 to the top surface 130 t of the molding 130.

In some embodiments, as in FIG. 23 , in order to form the first-level conductor 145 c of the first redistribution layer 145, a layer of conductive material (e.g., copper) 311 is deposited over the top surface 130 t of the molding 130 by plating, such as electroplating or electro-less plating. In order to enable the electroplating, in some embodiments, a seed layer (not shown) of Ti/Cu having thickness of 1000 to 5000 Å is deposited on the top surface 130 t, and a layer of conductive material 311 is applied on the seed layer. Next, the layer of conductive material 311 is patterned and etched, leaving behind the first-level conductor 145 c over the first and second conductive vias 131, 132 and the conductive pillars 124 of the die 120.

Then, referring to FIG. 24 , in some embodiments, a first insulating layer 312 (e.g., PBO) is applied over the resulting structure. The first insulating layer 312 has a thickness between about 3 μm and about 20 μm. As a thickness of the first insulating layer 312 increases, the cost of the first insulating layer 312 is too high in some embodiments. As a thickness of the first insulating layer 312 decreases, the process parameters of the current manufacturing process are not applicable in some embodiments. In some embodiments, the first insulating layer 312 has a thickness between about 3 μm and about 7 μm. In some embodiments, the first insulating layer 312 has a thickness about 6 μm.

In some embodiments, formation of the second redistribution structure 140 is followed by patterning the first insulating layer 312 and forming openings for vias, which are then filled with conductive material (e.g., copper) to form the first-level vias 145 v, the first insulating layer 145 i, and completing the first redistribution layer 145. The top surface of the first redistribution layer 145 is ground and polished. In some embodiments, the second redistribution layer 146 is then formed on the first redistribution layer 145. In order to form the second redistribution layer 146, a layer of conductive metal (e.g., copper) is deposited over the first redistribution layer 145 and then patterned and etched, leaving behind the second-level conductor 146 c over the first redistribution layer 145.

In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 25 , a second insulating layer (e.g., PBO) 313 is then applied over the resulting structure. In some embodiments, some of the second-level conductors 146 c include the antenna structures 144. The antenna structures 144 are formed over the dielectric member 327 surrounded by the first conductive vias 131 and the first conductive pattern 111.

Formation of the second redistribution structure 140 is followed by patterning the second insulating layer 313 and forming openings, which are then filled with conductive metal (e.g., copper) to form the second-level vias 146 v, and completing the second redistribution layer 146. The top surface of the second redistribution layer 146 is ground and polished. Next, the third redistribution layer 147 is formed on the second redistribution layer 146. In order to form the third redistribution layer 147, a layer of conductive material (e.g., copper) is deposited over the second redistribution layer 146, and then patterned and etched, leaving behind the third-level conductor 147 c structures over the second redistribution layer 146.

In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 26 , a third insulating layer (e.g., PBO) 314 is next applied over the resulting structure. In some embodiments, a material and a formation method of the third insulating layer 314 are similar to those of the first insulating layer 312 and the second insulating layer 313, so repeated descriptions thereof are omitted herein for the sake of brevity.

In some embodiments, referring to FIG. 27 , forming the second redistribution structure 140 is followed by patterning the third insulating layer 314 and forming openings for under ball metal (UBM) pads 147 p, which are then filled with conductive metal to form the UBM pads 147 p and completing the third redistribution layer 147.

In some embodiments, the conductive bumps 150 are disposed on the UBM pads 147 p. In some embodiments, the conductive bump 150 is attached to the UBM pad 147 p through a solder flux. In some embodiments, the conductive bump 150 is disposed on the second redistribution structure 140 by a ball placement process and/or a reflowing process. In some embodiments, the formation of the conductive bump 150 includes performing a plating step to form solder regions over the UBM pads 147 p, and then reflowing the solder regions.

After the conductive bump 150 is mounted on the second redistribution structure 140, the adhesive layer 114 and the supporting substrate 113 are removed or detached from the first redistribution structure 110, as in FIG. 28 . In some embodiments, the adhesive layer 114 (e.g., the LTHC release layer) is irradiated by a UV laser such that the supporting substrate 113 and the adhesive layer 114 are able to be peeled off from the first dielectric layer 112. However, the detachment process is not limited thereto. Other suitable methods are usable in some embodiments. Thereafter, a singulation process is performed to form a plurality of semiconductor structures 100. In some embodiments, the dicing process or the singulation process typically involves dicing with a rotating blade or a laser beam. In other words, the dicing or singulation process is, for example, a laser cutting process, a mechanical cutting process, or another suitable process. In some embodiments, the semiconductor structure 100 is referred to as an integrated fan-out (InFO) package. However, the disclosure is not limited thereto.
